Actively navigated implantation with RoboDent Dr. Claus Schüttler-Janikulla, MSc., Dr. Sandra Siepmann Computer-guided surgical techniques have become an integral part in dental implantology today - especially if the practitioner wants to achieve a superior prosthetic restoration in challenging anatomic situations. Systems with passive as well as active computer support are currently available. Passive systems allow for a virtual surgical planning and the transfer to the drilling template for an indirectly navigated implant insertion. In contrast, active systems comprise special surgical equipment which guides the dentist during surgery according to the created plan. |
